SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result

in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.

ANTI-TIP DEVICE

To reduce the risk of tipping the range,

the range must be secured by a properly

installed anti-tip bracket. See installation

instructions shipped with the bracket for

complete details before attempting to install.

For Free-Standing and Slide-In Ranges

To check if the bracket is installed and

engaged properly, look underneath the

range to see that the rear leveling leg is

engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel

can be removed for easy inspection. If visual inspection is not possible,

slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to

the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the rear leveling leg is under

the anti-tip bracket.

If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this

procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.

Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured

to the anti-tip device properly.

• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.

• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.

• Engage the range to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the

range back such that the foot is engaged.

• Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.

• Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns

to children or adults.

How Induction Surface Cooking Works

The elements beneath the cooking surface produce a

magnetic field that generates heat in ferrous metal pans

that are in close proximity.

The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is

produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated

until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.

When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat

immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.

Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware

PDGHRIIHUURXVPHWDOV²PHWDOVWRZKLFKPDJQHWVZLOO

stick, such as iron or steel.

8VHSDQVWKDWILWWKHHOHPHQWVL]H7KHSDQPXVWEHODUJH

enough for the element to detect the pan and be able to

deliver full power.

The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron

utensil, such as a steel spatula, cooking spoon, knife

or other small utensil, is placed on the cooking surface

when the unit is turned on.

CAUTION

Operating the Cooktop Elements

WARNING

FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the

range unattended with the cooktop on medium or

high settings. Keep flammable items away from the

cooktop. Turn off all controls when done cooking.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,

serious injury or death.

Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with

CERAMA BRYTE

Ceramic Cooktop Cleaner. This helps

protect the top and makes cleanup easier.

Throughout this manual, features and appearance may

vary from your model.

Place your Induction designed cookware on the cooking

surface. Push the knob in and turn in either direction to

the setting you want.

A knob indicator light will glow when any surface unit is on.

NOTE: The warming zone is NOT an induction element

and will work with flat bottomed cookware that is NOT

ferrous.

Using the correct size cookware

Pans that are not ferrous or are too small will not allow

the induction elements to turn on, and the ON indicator

for that element location will flash for 25 seconds and

then turn off. If a pan is removed from or not centered on

the induction coil for more than 30 seconds, the power for

that element will be shut off.

less power at any given setting.

Cookware “Noise”

Slight sounds may be produced by different types

of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast

iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply

stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount

of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.

When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power

level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce

a low whistle or intermittent “hum”. These noises can be

reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power

level settings of one or both of the elements. Pans that

completely cover the element ring will produce less noise.

A low “humming” noise is normal particularly on high

settings.

Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight “Buzz”

when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound

depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will

“Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound

may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan

heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is

reduced, the sound level will go down.

Power Control

If a surface unit is on power level H (high), for an

extended period of time or if multiple surface units are

on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the

surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the

controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.

the side tracks with a paper towel, shake the graphite

lubricant and place 4 small drops on the two bottom

tracks of the left and right sides. Open and close the

rack several times to distribute the lubricant.

To order additional graphite lubricant, see the

Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end

of this manual.

To Remove An Extension Rack:

1. Make sure the rack is pushed all the way into the

oven so that side paddles on the rack disengage from

the oven support.

2. Slide the rack toward you to the bump (stop position)

on the rack support.

3. Firmly grasp both sides of the rack frame and the
